What is this update? - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on Bell but have Niaboc's D6503 23.1.A.0.690 installed and my phone says there is a system update. Any idea what this would be?
Cheers

Why not flash one of the many prerooted 1.28 zips offered here on this forum. Search and you bound to find one
Or download the FTF of choice and use PRFcreator to make your own flashable pre-rooted zip.

Lock the bootloader, update to 290 and root again. Use your eyes and read. It's new year so don't expect any quality stuff from me.

Maybe 402 update isn't rolling out in your region. Mine neither (Vietnam).
So if you want to use 402, try flashtool with 402 firmware.

Than flashing a zip?
flash zip > download new flashtool, download FTF,flash FTF, Root, update supersu...
Is it ok to flash it on C6802?
@blueether.. if you and I had a dollar for every time... @Till-Kruspe, yes mate, fine on 6802
Is doom Kernel v20 gonna be compatible?
Is it normal to have a message saying it's flashing 14.3.A.0.757 (the previous version) when I flash the zip or is this the wrong version uploaded?
Very good new love my ZU

Anyone got changelog for this update.

Couldn't get this to flash because Flashtool wouldn't recognise device is in Flashmode. I'm at a bit of a loss as to why this is ... Windows drivers perhaps?
Flashed. Smooth, fast & battery so good

When your system is modified you cant update over the air, if you got working recovery,find your self a prerooted rom and flash it.
here is one by our good man @niaboc79.
Or you can create your own prerooted based on ftf by your choice with prfcreator
